Tempura Hajime

It was a Friday arvo, and it was the best chance for me to finally take a lunch break with both my seniors off for the day. I am always so overloaded with work, I just cannot afford to take lunch breaks or I won't be able to get all my work done by the end of the day.

Jenna was nice enough to come down to the city to accompany me to lunch. As I couldn't wander too far away from my office, we ended up at Tempura Hajime.

Most expensive Japanese green tea I've ever came across - $5 per person! *gasps* That pot of green tea cost $10, madness. But what is a Jap lunch without green tea, ey?

My critique of the tempura is that; first of all the bowl of batter mix where he dipped the stuff doesn't seem to have small chunks of flour floating around. those little bits of undissolved flour helps with the crunch factor. Second of all, during the frying process, he didn't subsequently add more batter mix onto the food which are already frying in the oil. so the end result is that you get ingredients fried in a batter akin to what you can get from a fish and chips shop.
